2013 Predictions – Part IV

Following from my previous post, this one will
be the last one to focus on some of the
insights that we can get from the stars regarding the ways in which 2013
will unfold in relation to our zodiac sign. Following the tradition of my blog
related to starting from Pisces and moving clockwise in the zodiac, this post will cover Gemini, Taurus
and Aries. The main
astrological indicators that I will focus on are the transits of Jupiter and Saturn, although I will
take into account transits of the faster moving planets (Mercury, Venus and
Mars) as well as those of the slower moving planets (Uranus, Neptune and
Pluto). Jupiter will remain in the sign
of Gemini until June 26th 2013 and will then move to Cancer where it will
stay until June next year. On the other hand, Saturn will remain in Scorpio for
the whole year. Concerning the slower moving planets, Pluto and Uranus will remain in Capricorn and Aries, respectively, whereas
Neptune will be in its natural ‘habitat’, that is, Pisces.

If, as I suspect, you’re only interested to read
about your personal zodiac sign (or the sign of your loves ones), please scroll
down until you find it. Each paragraph
is devoted to a different sign, Gemini coming first, Taurus second, and
so on. If you’re not quite sure under which zodiac sign you were born, you will
notice the start and end dates of each sign being depicted in brackets next to
the name of the corresponding sign. Please also note the following two things:
a) If you were born on the cusp between
two adjacent zodiac signs (e.g., April 20th, which would be the end of
Aries and the beginning of Taurus), you might find it useful to read both signs and b) you might find
it equally useful to read the sign of
your Ascendant as well. For example, someone who was born on May 21st
and has Scorpio ascending (like me!) would get more out of reading the signs of
Taurus, Gemini and Scorpio.

Gemini(May 21- June 20)

With Jupiter in your sign you are
the most favored of the zodiac until June 26 when Jupiter enters Cancer.This transit
of Jupiter, which is the planet of luck, development and welfare, only happens
once every twelve years for each sign; this means that when you have Jupiter in
your sign you should take full advantage of it. Although Jupiter does not solve all your problems or improve your life
as if by magic, it does open up new doors and quite a few actually.The doors you choose to open may lead you to things,
situations and people that you might have never imagined you could have in your
life.Those of you born in the first half of the
sign, that is May 21- June 6, have already witnessed Jupiter’s good luck during
the second semester of 2012. Those born in the second half of the sign
will start to gradually feel Jupiter’s luck during the
first semester of 2013, especially from mid-April to late June.

Therefore, for you Gemini the first
half of 2013 is a period of significant growth and unique opportunities that
will come your way without you having to seek them out.These
opportunities will help you achieve greater autonomy and see life with more
optimism and wanderlust.This is because the
action of Jupiter is liberating: it breaks the shackles that may have kept you
in a relationship, job or situation that was stagnant and it thus helps you spread
your wings and fly.It is almost certain that
with Jupiter in your sign you’ll be given a gift that you may have been waiting
for some time now. This way you’ll be able to make a dream come true and start your
life over.This may be a new relationship, a
pregnancy, a lucky house move, a job you’ve always wanted, going to university
or applying for further education or simply doing a trip you've always dreamed
of. Because in your case Jupiter rules
both the field of relationships and partnerships as well as that of career, you
are sure to have significant and positive developments in both areas.A new
business relationship, a marriage, a promotion or a new job is among the
possible scenarios.

Especially for those of you born
May 23-26 Neptune in your tenth solar house promises fame and recognition; just
do not let it fool you, because "all that glitters is not gold."Plenty of irritation due to delays or misunderstandings regarding
career and home should be expected because of retrograde Mercury from February
23 until March 17.Patience will be needed until
April 6 to overcome some of these delays and misunderstandings.The lunar eclipse that will take place on May 25 and will activate
Neptune will bring some emotional climax in relation to both your career and your
partner; nevertheless, the simultaneous triple Mercury-Venus-Jupiter conjunction
in your sign indicates that this emotional climax may be related to a marriage
or a good business deal that is perhaps done in secret.Finally, Jupiter will enter the sign of Cancer on June 26 to
stay there until the end of the year. From that position it will increase your
income and ignite your consumerist tendencies, but it will also boost your self-confidence and push you to cultivate
old talents or discover new ones.

Taurus(April 20 – May 20)

With Saturn opposite your sign, this
year is expected to be very important, though not necessarily easy, especially
for those of you born from April 23 to May 10.Saturn is associated
with discipline, method and diligence, so you’ll definitely be asked to
demonstrate these qualities, which you may perceive as pressure.Transiting your seventh solar house, Saturn will remind you
through the presence of an important person that you need to get down to work
and that you need to make significant and perhaps painful cuts in your life;
this way you'll be able to get rid of anything that does no longer serve any
purpose. Despite the fact that changes are not your
cup of tea, with Saturn in Scorpio opposite your sign you will be asked to
detach yourself from past habits that have nothing to do with your current needs.Among other things, this may mean that you’ll have to
make some budget cuts, although Jupiter from your second house will boost your
income from early February until late June.Probably
some work you started around June 2012 will finally start to pay off come
February.

In any case, Saturn in your seventh
solar house is associated with significant responsibilities
that have to do with a business or romantic partner.More
specifically, you may decide to begin a serious business relationship or end an
old one if it does no longer benefit you.Also,
if you're already in a relationship, you'll start to consider if you really
need this person in your life.If you think you
really need it, then you’ll want to take your relationship one step further and
to make it official, possibly through marriage or through planning to have a baby.If
you feel that you do no longer need this person, you're quite likely to remove
them from your life.If you're not in a
relationship, it's quite likely that someone enters your life and becomes very
important to you, although sometimes you may perceive them as somewhat oppressive and demanding.

One of the most critical periods of
the year is expected to be the period from April 15 until May 9 when you get to
have Venus, your ruler, in your sign.This transit, apart
from making you indulge in love, outings, pleasure and socializing, will be
marked by two successive eclipses, a lunar one on April 25 and a solar one on
May 10. Processes and emotional tensions
associated with what has been said above will reach a climax during those eclipses.
It will be then when you make official or stop a romantic relationship or when
you decide to start a serious business relationship or get rid of an old one.Also, yournerves may suffer a bit from October 21 until
November 10, especially for those of you born April 22-May 8.The reason will be related to significant delays or
misunderstandings that Mercury retrograde will bring in relation to personal
issues but mainly to business partnerships, romantic relationships and
marriage.Patience will be needed until November 27
before you can put an end to some of these delays and misunderstandings.Finally, Jupiter will enter the sign of Cancer on June
26 and will stay there until the end of the year. From that position, it will broaden your mind and
increase your need for going on short trips, communicating your thoughts, contacting neighbors and kin, and acquiring new skills, such as
driving and learning languages or how to use specific software. Buying a new car, motorbike or computer or fixing your old ones is also favoured from June 26 onwards.

Aries(March 20 – April 19)

With planet Uranus in your sign and with
Pluto in a sign that is in natural conflict with yours for more than a year now,
this year is expected quite challenging for you!Thus, the Uranus-Pluto
square, which most strongly affects those of you born late March, will mark a
series of radical changes related to important areas of your life such as your
career, your social position, your family, your parents and your actual home.More specifically, with Uranus in your sign you’ll want
to make a significant change in life without necessarily taking potential
consequences into account.After all, you rarely
think about the consequences of your actions!

The reason for this change may be
given when your boss or one of your two parents try to impose themselves on you.Chances are
this will be done in a rather subtle or sneaky way, for example through some emotional
or financial manipulation.This situation will
upset your emotional world, so you might want to rebel by performing a complete
overhaul in your life.This overhaul may entail
changing jobs, career, home, or family situation, and in any case
it will create opportunities that will bring you much closer to fulfilling your
purpose in life.The bottom line is that you’ll
want to get rid of anything that’s kept you stagnant in the past thus gaining a
whole new sense of who you are and what you want.Remember, however, that such changes, even if positive, will
take time to be digested.If you're not the one
to cause these changes and you thus experience them in a more negative manner,
then remember that the more you resist, the more difficult it’ll be to adapt to
them.Dates near which these changes will
culminate are May 21 and November 1.

One of the most positive periods of
the year is expected to be the period from March 22 until April 15 when Venus
will be in your sign and you’ll want toindulge in love, outings, pleasure, and
socializing. Nevertheless,
your nerves may suffer a bitfrom June 26 to July 20,
especially for those of you born April 3-13.The
reason will be some significant delays or misunderstandings that Mercury
retrograde will bring in relation to your home and family but also to your career.Patience will be required until August 4 before you can
put an end to some of these delays and misunderstandings.Moreover, Jupiter will enter the sign of Cancer on June 26 and
will stay there until the end of the year. From that position it will increase
your desire to perform a complete overhaul in your life as mentioned above,
particularly in your home life. Moving houses, renovating the one where
you currently live, buying a new one, or extending your
family through the arrival of a new baby is therefore quite likely in the
second semester of 2013.Finally, the October 18 lunar
eclipse will take place in your sign and will mainly affect those born near
April 15. It may bring some emotional tension between you and your partner and
it may have you consider either to break up or to further strengthen the bond
between the two of you.
